My dog has recently started this, he eats his breakfast, then licks out the bitch's bowl while she has his... and then he wees in her bowl!
Any idea how to stop this? Have been grabbing her bowl as soon as she's finished but also wondering why he would suddenly do this?
It's always the bitch's bowl, never his own.
Dog is about 1 1/2, has been with us for 5 months and is entire. (Bitch is spayed and the dog has not shown any interest in any bitch or any kind of dominant behaviour. )
 
I think its an entire dog thing, either feed them in separate rooms or have him neutered or both.

I had a horse who after we spread the hay out in the field would wee on all of them except his own.:eek:
 
It's him claiming the feed bowl as his own. My castrated male BC does this, but my dogs are fed outside, he'll even do it in his own bowl, eat, step forward, cock his leg and wee in his own bowl. My boy is 13 now and has been doing it for quite a few years, sometimes I stand there and grab the bowls when they have finnished eating, but sometimes I'm not quick enough.
 
My springer does this :rolleyes: beastly animals!! He has had his boy bits removed and has only decided to do this over the last couple of months :eek:

ETA: Luckily he lives outside ;-)
 
Glad it's not something really unusual!
Am in 2 minds whether to neuter him but I think now that he's settled in I probably will, hopefully it'll stop this behaviour.
Thanks guys.
